Add Fireblocks as a whitelister on Aave Arc

Hey there! I would like some clarification.

This does not let Fireblocks arbitrarily deploy Aave markets to be covered by the safety module, right? Anyone can deploy an Aave market without problem, but governance ofc can choose not to accept a market under the purview of the safety module for instance, if parameters are not secure enough/etc.

I think this is fine, as long as the ultimate control of Aave Arc remains in the governance’s hands. This of course would include the ability to revoke any whitelister role upon a governance vote.

With that clarified, I think this is a great step towards bridging institutions into DeFi.
